Software Engineer, Trading & Risk Systems
Multi-strategy hedge fund
Builds the technology underpinning trading execution, risk systems, and data infrastructure for a multi-strategy investment platform.
How is a software engineering role at a multi-strategy hedge fund different from one at a market maker?
A hedge fund's engineering roles typically support a broader range of strategies, equities, fixed income, macro, and credit, rather than one core market-making business, meaning engineers are more likely to work across multiple asset classes over the course of their career.
What does an engineer building risk systems at a hedge fund actually work on?
Systems that let portfolio managers and risk teams monitor and manage exposure across the firm's strategies in real time, alongside the core trading execution and data infrastructure that supports the wider investment platform.
What's the realistic compensation trajectory for engineers at a top-tier multi-strategy hedge fund?
Total compensation is heavily performance-linked, with base salary supplemented by a substantial discretionary bonus that scales meaningfully with experience and firm performance, plus bonus and other benefits.
